There's only a few hours to go until the midseason finale of Arrow airs, and while we're all hoping to see Barry Allen get the powers which turn him into The Flash, this last-minute batch of promo photos features the police scientist exploring Oliver Queen's hideout.

After a fight with Cyrus Gold AKA the Acolyte (guest star Graham Shiels), Oliver (Stephen Amell) is drugged and left for dead. Determined to cure him, Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards) makes a risky decision. The cure causes Oliver to hallucinate, and what he sees forces him to confront his past. Meanwhile, Barry (guest star Grant Gustin) continues to help Felicity, and their connection grows stronger. The Arrow asks Lance (Paul Blackthorne) to look into Gold, but when the stakeout on Gold goes bad, someone is killed. Roy (Colton Haynes) is captured and tortured by Brother Blood (guest star Kevin Alejandro). John Behring directed the episode with story by Greg Berlanti & Andrew Kresiberg and teleplay by Geoff Johns & Ben Sokolowski.

Ollie better switch to those composite arrows Barry was tellin Felicity about...also, where's his frakking shirt?! We're supposed to believe he wears that leather jacket with no shirt all the time huh?

Like I said in another article, I would like Grant Gustin if he wasn't so cocky in the role. His stupid twitter is filled with Flash crap. I only hate it because a year ago celebrities didn't give a damn about superhero roles but now they flash (get it) themselves all over the internet.

@NPaMusic That confirms nothing it never says that it is not connected. Plus that guy just wants to be Nightwing and has been hounding producers he has not been cast in anything. Plus one of the editors on this site has a source at WB and they said they are waiting for how audiences react to Grant Gustin here is the article:

I bet we see Barry's superspeed tonight. My money is on the fact that he's already had the speed powers. THAT'S why they allowed all the scuttlebutt to reach us. It's a bait and switch. No need for a Flash "back door pilot" when the powers are established. Give him his own and make the "origin" a flashback.

I agree with you so much. WB would be missing out on an entirely created and populated DCU by not including Arrow and everything that comes with it. Especially if they're current plan is to try and act like the whole world is established without putting in all the work Marvel has done over the years.

Hell IMDB top ten user rated shows of the year has Arrow at 5 only behind the like of GoT, Breaking Bad, and Walking Dead. Arrow is a good show period, not just a good superhero show....
